VS-1081-1 Request a mailing address using DigiD

Do you not have a permanent residential address, or are you staying in a facility? If so, you can request a mailing address to ensure the government can reach you. The person or facility listed a enrolled ly at the mailing address is called the “mailing address provider.” The mailing address provider must ensure that you receive your mail from the government. Examples include:

• letters
• tax forms

Good to know:

• A mailing address is always an address in the Netherlands.
• It must not be a " postbus ."
• Reason for requesting a mailing address.

Who can apply for a mailing address?

• The individual in question (the person who will be living in a facility, or who does not have a residential address)
• Parents, guardians, and caregivers of young people up to age 16 who need a mailing address.

Requesting a mailing address for someone else—what are the options?

• A partner (whether married or in a registered partnership) may apply for a mailing address on behalf of the other partner if he or she has been authorized in writing by that partner to do so.
• Adult children may request a mailing address on behalf of a parent if they have been authorized to do so by that parent.
• Any adult acting on behalf of a person who has authorized him or her in writing to do so.
• The director of the facility where you will be living.

To ensure better and faster service, the municipality requests, at a minimum:

• Information about the person providing the mailing address.
• The address you want to enrol.

Please note!

• The primary resident of the mailing address must submit a statement confirming that he or she will ensure that the mail is delivered to you. To do so, the primary resident can fill out the following form: PU-2082-1 Statement “ authorisation ” mailing address with DigiD.

• Providing a mailing address does not guarantee that it will always be approved. The application is reviewed by the Public Affairs Department of the municipality of Voorschoten.
